-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi everyone!
Thanks to an initiative from Arturo Borrero Gonzalez, we have created a new team on Alioth to package RPM related packages in Debian. While we're still using dpkg and apt in Debian (and we have no intention to change that), it is still useful to maintain these packages. For example, yum can be used as a debootstrap replacement to create a CentOS or Fedora chroot from within a Debian system. Createrepo can be used to maintain a yum repository from a Debian machine. Etc. Here's the list of packages which are going to be team maintained: - - createrepo - - deltarpm - - rpm - - rpmlint - - yum - - yum-metadata-parser - - yum-utils If you maintain a package that is related (for example, if you intend to adopt Alien, which is currently orphaned), then we warmly welcome you in the pkg-rpm team on Alioth. We don't intend to enforce strong packaging rules. Just use git-buildpackage please, so that we have a common ground to work on, and accept that anyone in the team can touch "your" package and upload. Also, team members should register tp and read the list: pkg-rpm-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org As for myself, I am hereby volunteering for sponsoring any upload for any team member that doesn't have upload rights. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJXl9xpAAoJENQWrRWsa0P+Tm8P/2kj4vxkycj2zQN/ejfavByK dquCmQIzPZLEMFgQd2UtASyCAVe3uKbU8bKx0iLHp1bd37dXeKe1oPsoSaTg4o24 /Y3zWv+b7qpS03fcUEEvjJMtw87cDGwNrZ8KOiG6Ib51sgolGuRut6XuqbdO6+Od +OnOQjKbqvoLP7FUxCIiE1clqM56iuFPFCKQnQug+IG45r7CJFW/4iPCsMunvq7/ uN1Z+85PGAVTGTHOtEqrssoe8eCpCnUonoixG33vE62a/PcjqT8SCp0n76dmZBJD 4JwJiPmU/07tCm4r6weAq7NLea1CplHzR7noPThlKEqTTTOFeQ0892TJlcwXTlBN LNkwLztxfzD+/019SZtFWolq4H0wyLQRQ6HM/GbEHWepWSq4AXCGg/4+8f4eK8qg KmgVCxqpKxpZ6AIrfNNvqRjFMbDMIxxKQDVLYfrhKtqjqRipIp+hVv6/wr2xoG/N iSkk6TqKdtsAW5RDyWK2Vej1ngj6vBmmWMguPNCOK0nz4fHpn19WbAa/ufue/X6x EVk+xG5Y/kNcCB5aeRH49N7v86HWKW2JxyziN6iLZi5HpHsAcCvTUn85gt3N4Tnx wz9Z3M+j52+N+H2lU/qsLjXd8vxPLkrArOdyeU2dOwN2W1FIj0Y0uoD9vFry6o6S ImMtH7eh7zkqqXKIEiD7 =4Q5D -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
